The Dr. Schorlemmer (also: Dr. R. Schorlemmer's Sanatorium or Heilanstalt ) was located in Bad Godesberg and mainly specialized in gastric, intestinal and metabolic diseases. The nationally known sanatorium existed under this name from 1905 to 1972. It was located in the district of Villenviertel and was spread over various Wilhelminian-style buildings on Rheinallee , Uhlandstrasse and Herderstrasse , which are now listed .

history

In 1899 the doctor Franz Hub had set up a sanatorium for stomach, intestinal and metabolic diseases with 15 beds in Villa Rheinallee 37 . Since many of the diet-related illnesses were treated with quark dishes , the clinic in Godesberg was called the "Quark Clinic". In 1905 the then 31-year-old doctor Rudolf (sometimes also: Rudolph ) Schorlemmer took over this institute. Schorlemmer (vmtl. 1874–1936) had previously worked as an assistant doctor at the clinic and polyclinic for gastrointestinal patients of the well-known gastroenterologist Ismar Boas in Berlin, and had published several times on gastroenterological topics, for example in 1899 ( examinations of the faeces for undigested protein residues by means of the 'Digestion Sample' ) and 1902 ( studies on the size of the protein-digesting power of the stomach contents of healthy people, such as those with stomach and intestinal diseases. Using critically comparative use of the Hammerschlag and Mett's method ).

extension

Schorlemmer was so successful with his health treatments for gastric, intestinal and metabolic diseases in Godesberg that he was able to purchase adjacent buildings before the outbreak of the First World War and increase the sanatorium to 75 beds. The clinic also became known beyond the borders of the German Empire. In an advertisement from 1913, the sanatorium advertised, among other things, first-class comfort, electric lighting, central heating, salubra wallpapers, upholstered double doors, balconies, vacuum cleaning, a shady garden and a lounge area. Baths and electrical applications of all kinds, an X-ray laboratory, a laboratory for detailed metabolic examinations, trained nursing staff and care by two specialist doctors (in addition to Schorlemmer, a C. Uhl) were offered. A postcard from 1930 advertised a wider range of offers: Special institute for diseases of the esophagus, stomach and intestines, liver and biliary tract, pancreas, heart and kidneys; For people suffering from sugar and gout, anemia and convalescents after operations on the digestive tract. Raw food. Fattening and defatting cures. From the end of the 1920s, sick people from the Reich Employee Insurance were treated in a separate department .

In 1930 the 25th anniversary of the clinic was celebrated with a dinner in the Godesberg Redoute .

Schorlemmer was also committed to developing Godesberg into a health resort . In 1920 he published a memorandum for the corresponding expansion of Godesberg as well as for the use and healing effects of the Draitsch spring on behalf of the Godesberg municipal administration and medical profession . The doctor died on February 9, 1936 and was buried in the Godesberg castle cemetery.

Hospital and student dormitory

During the Second World War , a hospital was set up in the clinic.

In March 1950, the German Hospital Society, founded in 1949, met for the first time on the premises of the sanatorium. Among the participants were Superior Lucy Romberg ( Workers' Welfare ), Franz Vonessen , Father Bernhard Rüther ( Camillian ), Hans Lorenser and the Superior General of the sororities of the German Red Cross , Luise von Oertzen . The clinic was stopped in the early 1970s. From 1972, the former laboratory buildings were leased from the Rheinallee property company by the Bonn Student Union and used as a dormitory for 90 students for three decades. In 2002 the use as a student residence was given up because fire protection regulations could not be complied with.

Condominiums

After being set up as a student residence, the buildings were initially empty and degenerated. In 2004 the Prinz von Preussen Grundbesitz AG took over the ensemble under its board member Theodor Tanzen to convert it into condominiums. The individual objects were extensively renovated from the point of view of monument protection. 41 high-quality condominiums were created in the old buildings and in a new building, which are connected by a shared garden.

building

The former sanatorium complex includes the buildings Rheinallee 37, 41 and 43 as well as Herderstraße 21/23 , which have been a listed building since 1999.

  • Rheinallee 37 (along Uhlandstrasse ): The villa was built in 1894 by the Vohwinkel family. A man in medieval clothes standing on a console facing Uhlandstrasse with gauntlets, doublet and plume is believed to represent one of the family's ancestors. After the renovation, known as a "villa", there are now 27 condominiums with up to 120 square meters of floor space.
  • Rheinallee 41
  • Rheinallee 43
  • Herderstrasse 21/23 (corner of Rheinallee ): Erected in 1899. After the renovation, the building is called "Maison Herderstrasse". Five condominiums were built here, each between 100 and 154 square meters in size.

The Schorlemmer family, after whom it was named, lived in the villa at Rheinallee 24 , which is around 400 meters away .
